Question: How does the mass affect the force required to move an object?
Hypothesis: The larger the mass, the more force required to push the object.
Independent Variable: Mass of the object
Dependent Variable: Force required to move the object
Constants: Gravity
Procedures:
Apply as much force onto an object as possible.
Observe the maxium oposing force.
Add .1 to the maxium opposing force to get .1N of a force forward.
Record your force results.
Repeat steps 1-4 with the rest of the objects.
Object
mass (kg)
Force Required (N)

The blue dot was supposed to be a key but no key is present
Conclusion: From the experiment, we concluded that when an object has a greater mass, the force required to push it was also greater. The relationship between the mass and the force was an exponental growth with a positive coralation.
